* Function: sem_destroy
*
* Description:
* This function is used to destroy the un-named semaphore
* indicated by sem. Only a semaphore that was created
* using sem_init() may be destroyed using sem_destroy();
* the effect of calling sem_destroy() with a name semaphore
* is undefined. The effect of subsequent use of the
* semaphore sem is undefined until sem is re-initialized
* by another call to sem_init().
*
* The effect of destroying a semaphore upon which other
* processes are currently blocked is undefined.
*
* Parameters:
* sem - Semaphore to be destroyed.
*
* Return Value:
* 0 (OK), or -1 (ERROR) if unsuccessful.
*
* Assumptions:
*
